Amazing complaint from @coramcgladdery.bsky.social raising some important points. I’ve also raised a complaint asking which part of the meaning of "Protect the Dolls" the BBC doesn't want to promote.

"I’m complaining about the BBC blurring “Protect the Dolls” on Bethany’s T-shirt during Saturday’s Strictly Come Dancing broadcast after deleting and reposting promotional footage that avoided showing the message. Apparently, even a message of solidarity with trans women was too much for the BBC. A spokesperson defended this, stating “appropriate steps are taken to reduce the inclusion of any overt branding or slogans”. But this isn’t branding. It’s a message of solidarity with transgender women, and the BBC knows exactly what it means. In a December 2025 article, the BBC itself described the phrase as calling for “the safety, visibility and respect of transgender women against anti-trans rhetoric and violence”. Those are your words, not mine. So which part of that message does the BBC not wish its audience to see? Our safety? Our visibility? Our right to be treated with respect? Let’s call this what it is: trans erasure. A message affirming the visibility and safety of transgender women has been deliberately obscured. At a time when trans people face relentless hostility, the BBC has chosen to hide a message of solidarity rather than let it be seen. Hiding the message doesn’t make us disappear, but it does raise serious questions about whose visibility the BBC considers expendable. A generic reference to editorial guidelines isn’t an adequate answer. Would the BBC treat a message supporting another marginalised group in the same way? If not, why are trans women being treated differently? I want the BBC to identify the specific editorial guideline that justified this decision and explain why a message advocating our safety, visibility and respect was considered unsuitable for broadcast. The BBC knows what “Protect the Dolls” means because it’s already explained it to the public. So why, having acknowledged the importance of our safety and visibility, did it choose to hide a message calling for precisely that?"

Your regular reminder that in 2023 I was asked on Women’s Hour to be interviewed by Emma Barnett about Alice’s inquest. I said no, because Emma is GC, but I’d go on with someone else. They didn’t engage with me after that. The BBC is biased. It’s anti-trans and anti-anyone who supports trans people.

No half-measures. No tinkering around the edges. This Budget must deliver bold action to tackle the cost of living crisis.

The headline reads: “FAMILIES CAN'T AFFORD MORE OF THE SAME IN BUDGET.”
Below, Zack Polanski is identified as Leader of the Green Party, alongside the quote:
“With three in five families already cutting back on spending, and many about to see a £300 increase in their bills in January, we’re challenging the government to take bold and immediate action on the cost of living.
“For a start, this means moving more costs off energy bills, properly funding a national home insulation scheme, clamping down on profiteering by energy companies, and rapidly scaling up cheaper, cleaner energy.”

The Labour govt. seems to forget that climate change is a national security issue, and a world peace issue. If land is rendered unfarmable food scarcity may pressure nations to steal their neighbours land to feed their own population. Land being rendered unlivable will cause a global refugee crisis
